I have built and tested Anders' version of the package on one of my test
VMs. I have even removed the line I put into /etc/initramfs.d/modules
which loads vmxnet as a workaround and it brings up the interface like
it should.

network interface does not come up after installing
Thanks for all the feedback.
Note that my most recent debdiff (~andersk5 in my PPA) also fixes bug 302226
and is posted there.
The next steps are to sync open-vm-tools 2008.11.18-130226-1lenny1 into
Jaunty, and upload my Intrepid package as an SRU.

network interface does not come up after
I have also tested Anders's packages under Intrepid on a few VMs and
they do fix this issue. It's a great improvement.
I really wish the open-vm modules were packaged for each kernel, though,
so they don't need to be recompiled after each kernel upgrade.

I should probably have clarified the above. I'm using the 32-bit
version as both host and guest (since the host machine is a Northwood-

Running Ubuntu 8.10 as both a host AND guest here with VMware Server
2.0.0 and I can definitely confirm the bug.
The suggestion of adding vmxnet to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules followed
by an update-initramfs -u in the guest works perfectly for me. Network
fires right up.

network interface does not come up after installing open-vm-tools
I'm also seeing this problem on 8.10 after installing the open-vm-tools
package and modules from open-vm-source. This seems to be somewhat
related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/209377 .

process, but because
I have another works-for-me (tm) solution (other than adding vmxnet to

I can confirm the same problem and that both solutions: 1. rmmod and
modprobe then restart network and 2. modprobe.d, work.

Ruben,
Can you elaborate a little more on your solution, as the one that ravidgemole

I will attempt to re-order the startup scripts so that the open-vm-tools

I think it was as simple as adding vmxnet (on a single line) to the
file /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and rebuild your initrd (using: sudo
update-initramfs -u). Followed by a reboot ofcourse.
This is what I recall from what I did (I had same other projects take up

The above mentioned fix/workaround didn't work for me for some reason.
Adding vmxnet to the list modules to be included in the initrd did

The bug here appears to be in the packaging, not the init script and/or
code.
Example, I am using pcnet32/vmxnet with init.d. The upstream wiki says that I
need to have the following in my modprobe config (I have it in
modprobe.d/open-vm-tools):
install pcnet32 /sbin/modprobe -q
